Travel with a reminder of Independence Air, the Dulles-based carrier that took flight in 2004 after Atlantic Coast Airlines made its bold transition to an independent brand. Its short lifespan ended in 2006, yet its place in early-2000s aviation remains especially vivid for former passengers and airline collectors. This passport cover connects your next journey with a memorable chapter of Washington-area travel history and a carrier built around the spirit of going somewhere new.
Independence Air was a low-cost airline based at Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia. Its predecessor, Atlantic Coast Airlines, began on December 15, 1989, operating feeder service for United Airlines and Delta Air Lines under their regional brands. After its United contract was withdrawn, Atlantic Coast reinvented itself as Independence Air, a transition announced on November 19, 2003. Flight operations under the new name began June 16, 2004. Owned by FLYi, Inc., the carrier was headquartered near Dulles in unincorporated Loudoun County and built a network centered on East Coast markets with service extending west. Its fleet initially emphasized 50-seat regional jets before larger Airbus A319 aircraft were added. The airline entered Chapter 11 bankruptcy on November 7, 2005, and ended service on January 5, 2006. In March 2006, Northwest Airlines acquired its operating certificate and reported that the resulting regional airline would be renamed Compass Airlines.
